About This Cipher
This interactive experiment explores encoding techniques based on Borges' Library of Babel. Click the cipher blocks below to reveal different encryption methods and patterns.
Each block contains text encrypted with one of four classical ciphers: Shift Cipher (Caesar), Vigenère Cipher, Affine Cipher, and Substitution Cipher. The active cipher method is displayed when blocks are selected.
The Shift Cipher uses a fixed offset to shift each letter in the alphabet. The Vigenère Cipher employs a keyword to determine variable shifts for each character. The Affine Cipher combines multiplication and addition operations on each letter's position. The Substitution Cipher replaces each letter with another according to a fixed mapping pattern.
